@Blizzard_Ent This is bullshit I've been supporting Overwatch since day 1 and just because I have Cricket as my phone service provider, you are not allowing us to to play. Total bullshit!!! #bullshit #fixthis # WeWantToPlay

**** blizzard, **** overwatch 2, this **** is so dumb you had MONTHS to make sure this **** worked right but instead there's (supposedly) a line of 40K+ people waiting to get into the servers and no matter how long you wait, there's always some issue and you're put in back again

@Djturbo30 @ObaKiYoBa This is not true, don't be worried. Overwatch 1 owners get the first premium battle pass for free. Mine is still locked too, but Blizzard acknowledged the issue.

I'd like to imagine that this #Overwatch2 ddos attack is because they took overwatch 1

@PlayOverwatch I am still unable, after 5 and a half hours of waiting, to play Overwatch 2. I have never had this much trouble getting into a game server before. Is anyone else having this much trouble with connecting. I just looked up and apparently there was DDoS 3 hrs ago?

@PlayOverwatch You do realize that anybody with Cricket or any other prepaid phone service can not access your game…right? I personally have put hundreds of hour into Overwatch 1 and am kind of upset I can no longer play. I was excited to play Overwatch again but. I guess not.

@Qwik Well the move to shut down overwatch 1 has ****** you if you left it up for atleast a month or 2 people would have something to play whilest you fix this issue and wouldn't have a massive wave of players wanting to get into the game asap

This is literally by far the worst launch day for Overwatch 2 so many players are trying to get into the game, but no news on the issue from the developers themselves. It’s been four hours and still some people can’t even get into the game and play this is pathetic.

Overwatch 2 is the most disappointing game. The fact that all the new heroes will be locked behind a battle pass, being unable to switch your hero during a game is ******* absurd! Also, a DDos attack happened and it’s taking all day to fix it..unacceptable! 🙄 #Overwatch2
